An investigator who took a taped confession by Mosley -- played earlier for the jury -- was questioned this morning, Chief Deputy District Attorney Michael Rozman said. He is about to be cross-examined by the defense attorney.

Mosley, 26, was sentenced to 20 to 40 years in state prison in 2005 after pleading guilty to third-degree murder in the slaying of 23-year-old Christopher Thompson. The state Superior Court overturned his conviction in 2010 on an appeal and ordered a new trial.

Mosley's attorney, Anne Gingrich Cornick, was to call at least two people to the witness stand today: Mosley's friend who will verify he was with him at the time of the shooting and an eyewitness to the crime who has identified several people as the shooter, she said.

Mosley would face a life prison term if he is convicted of first- or second-degree murder.
